Chapter 20 Chapter 20 "Xia Ke Xing"

Master Long Dao said: "If you still have any doubts in your mind, please speak up." Bai Zizai said: "Island Master Long said that he invited us to look at the illustrations of ancient poems. What exactly is that, so please give me a look?" Island Master Long and Island Master Mu stood up together, and Island Master Long said: "I am asking to teach you all the wise and liberal gentlemen." Four disciples stepped forward, grabbed the edges of the two large screens, and slowly pulled them aside, revealing a long corridor.The island masters of Longmu Er said in unison: "Please!" Leading the way first.

All the heroes thought: "This tunnel must be full of killing organs." They couldn't help but their faces changed color.Bai Zizai said: "Son-in-law, my father and son are leading the battle." Shi Potian said: "Yes!"The rest of them expected to be doomed, so they followed one by one.There were more than ten people sitting at the table without moving, but all the disciples and servants on Xiake Island ignored them. Bai Zizai waited for more than ten feet, and came to a stone gate. On the gate was engraved with three big ancient officials: "Xia Ke Xing".Shi Potian naturally didn't know it, and didn't care about it.

A disciple in yellow shirt stepped forward and pushed open the stone gate, and said: "There are twenty-four stone chambers in the cave. You can come and watch as you please. If you are tired of watching, you can go outside the cave to relax. Once you eat and drink, each stone chamber There are provisions, you can use them as you like, you are welcome." Ding Busi sneered and said: "Everything is optional, but you are very polite. You just can't 'leave the island at will', can you?" The owner of Dragon Island laughed loudly, and said: "Mr. Ding, why did you say that? You all came to Xiake Island voluntarily. If you want to leave, who would dare to force you to stay? There are all big boats and small boats on the beach. If you want to go back, you can do whatever you want.”

The heroes were stunned, they didn't expect that Xia Ke Island was so generous, they could go or stay at will, several people asked in unison: "We are going now, can we?" The leader of Long Island said: "Naturally, everyone treats me as my own. Who are Brother Hemu? We are ashamed of our lack of hospitality, how dare we force guests to stay?" The hearts of the group were widened, and they all thought: "Since this is the case, let's see what the illustrations of the ancient poems are. Leave. He said that he would not force guests to stay, and in his capacity, he can't count what he said."

Now everyone walked into the stone room one after another, and saw a large polished stone wall to the east, and eight large torches were lit beside the stone wall, shining brightly.There are pictures and words carved on the wall.There were more than ten people in the stone room, some were contemplating, some were meditating, some were muttering to themselves with their eyes closed, and three or four people were arguing loudly.There were many empty large porcelain bowls on the table, which were supposed to have been filled with Laba porridge and emptied for all the people in the stone room. Bai Zizai suddenly saw a person, looked at him for a moment, and said in surprise, "Brother Wen, you...you...are you here?"

This black-clothed old man who doesn't live in the stone room is gentle and benevolent. He is the head of Shandong Eight Immortals Sword, and he has a long friendship with Bai Zizai.However, he saw Bai.Zai Shi wasn't very surprised, he just smiled lightly and said, "Why didn't you come here until today?" Bai Zizai said: "Ten years ago, I heard that you were invited by Xia Ke Island to drink Laba porridge. I only know you... I only know that you have passed away long ago, and you have cried a few times. How could you know..." Wen Renhou said: " How could I have died here to study superior martial arts? It's a pity, it's a pity that you came late. You see, the first sentence 'Zhao Keman Hu Ying', the comment on the word 'Hu' says: 'Hu People from the Western Regions. The New Tang Book inherits the saying: Hundreds of barbarian people practice sound and acoustics, and cut ribbons into dance clothes...'" As he said, he pointed to the small words on the stone wall and read it to Bai Zizai.

Bai Zizai met a good friend for the first time, and he was very happy. He was eager to ask others about other things, and also wanted to find out about the situation on the island. He asked, "Brother Wen, how has your life been in the past ten years? Why didn't you bring a letter to your home in Shandong?" ?” Wen Renhou stared and said: "What are you talking about? This illustration of the ancient poem 'Xia Ke Xing' contains the most extensive and profound martial arts secrets in the past and present. Mind to care about worldly affairs? Look at the person in the picture, he is definitely not a hero of Yan Zhao's tragic song, but why is he called "Zhao Ke"? To understand this sentence, you must first understand this important key. "

Bai Zizai turned his head to see that the figure painted on the wall was a young scholar, with a fan in his left hand and a flying palm in his right, with an elegant and unrestrained demeanor. Gentle and kind: "Brother Bai, I figured it out recently. The person in the picture is elegant and elegant, which should be an image of femininity, but the comment says: 'We must start from the strong and powerful'. Of course, it is said that femininity is the body and masculinity." It is not difficult to understand for use. But how to be 'body' and how to be 'use', there is really great knowledge in the middle."

Bai Zizai nodded and said, "That's right. Brother Wen, this is my grandson-in-law. Do you think his character is not bad? Kid, come and meet Third Grandpa Wen." Shi Potian approached, knelt down and kowtowed to Wen Renhou, and called out: "Grandfather Wen." Wen Renhou said: "Okay, okay!" But he didn't turn his eyes to him, and imitated the posture of the person in the picture with his left hand , his right hand suddenly clapped out, and with a whirring sound, he struck out, and said: "Left Yin and right Yang, Yin and Yang work together, this is probably the reason." Shi Potian thought: "The palm strength of the third grandfather is really good."

Bai Zizai read the notes carved on the wall: "Zhuangzi said about swords: "The crown prince said: "The swordsmen my king saw were all unkempt, crowned, with tassels and short clothes." Sima's comment said:' The tassels of the unadulterated hu means that the tassels are rough and unreasonable.’ Brother Wen, the word ‘manhu’ should be interpreted together. It’s not that he’s wearing a barbarian’s fringe. The word ‘Hu’ is a muddle, not a barbarian’s barbarian in the Western Regions.” Wen Renhou shook his head and said: "Otherwise, look at the next line of annotation: 'Zuosi Wei Du Fu said: Manhu's tassel. Note: Later said, Manhu, the name of a warrior." This is a kind of tassel worn by warriors, which can be crude or Exquisite. A few years ago, I asked Kang Kun, the head of the Guoyi Sect in Liangzhou. He is a barbarian from the Western Regions and knows everything about barbarians. He said that barbarian warriors have tassels on their crowns. The shape is like this..." He squatted down and drew a picture on the ground with his fingers.

Bai Zizai read the commentary on the wall again: "Cheng Xuanying said: "The tassel of the manhu is called the tassel and wipes the forehead." There is a cloud in Quande and Anthology: "The people who are compared to the house are swayed by the manhu. ’, Menglao is the name of a treasured sword, and the husk can be quilted. It is a kind of clothing, not a tassel. According to Cheng Xuanying’s explanation, it is a cloak with a hat. It has nothing to do with the Hu people. ..." Shi Potian listened to the two of them talking endlessly, but he didn't understand at all, and he didn't understand a single word of the annotation on the stone wall, after listening for a long time, he found no interest at all, so he left and walked to the second stone room.As soon as he entered the door, he could see the sword energy flying freely. Seven pairs of people were fighting with each other with their long swords, and the blades clashed continuously.The sword techniques used by these people seem to be different from each other, but they are all ingenious and extremely sophisticated. I saw the two of them disassembled a few moves, and then they stopped fighting. An old man with white beard said: "Brother, your idea of ​​this sword just now is strange, but you have to remember that the general outline of this sword technique is 'Wu Gou Shuangxue "Ming" five characters. Wu hook is also a scimitar. When you use the sword, you must never forget the word "scissor". Like a scimitar, there is a curve in the straight, and there is a straight in the curve, which is the tenet of the five characters "Wu hook, frost and snow." Another black-bearded old man shook his head and said, "Brother, you forgot another important point. Look at the note on the wall: Bao Zhaoyuefu: 'Brocade belt and Wu hook', and Li He's poem: 'Why don't men wear Wu hook' The word "pei" and the word "belt" are the most important key points in the poem. Although the Wu hook is a scimitar, it is worn on the body, not taken out for use. That means that the sword should be hidden With the momentum of the Wu hook, it turns as you wish, but it is not really curved." The white-bearded old man said: "But it is not. The 'Wu hook is frosty and snow-bright', shining brightly, it is not the Wu hook in the sheath, a sharp weapon worn on the body How can it be reasonable not to put it into the sheath?" Shi Potian stopped listening to the two arguing, walked to the side of the other two, and saw that the two were fighting extremely fast, one of them was attacking fiercely with his sword moves, while the other kept drawing circles with his long sword, stabbing the opponent's sword. All the tricks are blocked.Suddenly, there was a clang sound, both swords snapped, and the two jumped back at the same time. The burly black-faced man said: "The commentary on the wall says: Bai Juyi's poem says: 'Don't bend the sword lightly, it's better than a straight hook'. It can be seen that my straight-folded sword fits the original meaning of the annotation on the stone wall." The other is an old Taoist, Shi Potian recognized him as Taoist Tianxu, the head of Shangqing Temple, and the senior brother of Shi Zhuangzhu and his wife.Shi Potian's heart was trembling, for fear that he would be angry when he saw Bai Ji, but he didn't seem to see him, holding a half-cut sword in his hand, he couldn't help shaking his head, and said: "'Wu Gou Shuang Xueming' is the master,' You Sheng Qu Quan Hook' is a guest. It must not be the right way to overwhelm the guest." Shi Potian heard the two of them arguing for a long time, he didn't understand at all, so he raised his eyes to watch Bingzhi, a man and a woman fighting swords. The man and the woman moved very slowly, and every time they made a move, they were always comparing each other. Sometimes the man turned his head and meditated for a while, and sometimes the woman made a sword move eight or nine times without stopping. It was obvious that the two were not husband and wife. , that is, brothers and sisters, or fellow students, have a deep friendship with each other, and they are working together to study, without any disputes. Shi Potian thought: "If you learn from these two, you may learn some exquisite sword skills." He walked over slowly. I saw the man concentrating on his luck, thrusting his sword obliquely, halfway through the stab, then retracted it, shook his head, looked very frustrated, sighed, and said: "It's always wrong." The woman comforted him: "Brother Yuan , Compared with the previous five swords, this trick has made great progress. Let's think about this comment again: "The one with the Wu hook is also the precious sword of Wu Wanghelu." Why is Wu Wanghelu's precious sword different from others Is the treasured sword different?" The man put away his long sword and read the notes on the wall: "'Wu Yue Spring and Autumn Cloud: Helu is a treasure, Moxie, and he was ordered to make a golden hook in the middle of the country, and the command said: Those who can do good Wu hooks will be rewarded with a hundred gold. Wu Zuo There are many hooks. But someone was greedy for the king's reward, killed his two sons, and used his blood to provoke the gold, so they made two hooks and offered them to Helu.' Qianmei, this story is very cruel. For the reward of the king of Wu, he even Killed my two sons." The woman said: "I guess the word 'cruel' is probably the key to this trick, you must kill your own sons without leaving any room. Otherwise, you will be killed. Why did you specifically mark this section in the annotation text on the Shi Potian saw that this woman was only about forty years old, with a pretty appearance, but when he talked about killing her parents and children, she had no compassion at all, he didn't want to listen any more.He raised his eyes to look at the stone wall, and saw that the wall was densely engraved with words, but among the thousands of characters, some of the strokes looked like long swords, there were twenty or thirty in total. These sword shapes are either horizontal or straight, or left or right, in the eyes of literate people, they are just a stroke in a character, but Shi Potian is illiterate, and what he sees are long and short swords. The tips of the swords were pointing upwards, some were downwards, some were inclined to fly, and some were about to fall. Shi Potian looked down one sword at a time, and when he saw the twelfth sword, suddenly his right shoulder When the Jugu acupoint was hot, there was a hot air that was ready to move. When he looked at the thirteenth sword again, the hot air followed the meridians and reached the Wuli acupoint. When he looked at the fourteenth sword again, the hot air followed to the Quchi acupoint.The hot air is getting stronger and stronger, and it is constantly rushing up from the dantian. Shi Potian wondered inwardly: "Since I practiced the meridian map on the puppet, my internal strength has been greatly enhanced, but I have never been as fast as today. My stomach seems to be on fire. I'm afraid it's the toxicity of the Laba porridge." He was a little frightened, and when he looked at the sword shape painted on the stone wall, his internal energy was flowing according to the meridians, and the heat in his abdomen was slowly dissipating to the acupuncture points all over his body. From the first sword to the head, he followed the shape of the sword. Contemplation, thinking in the heart, the internal force flows continuously, like a river.From the first sword to the twenty-fourth sword, the internal force also circulated from Yingxiang point to Shangyang point for a week. He thought to himself: "It turns out that these sword shapes are related to the practice of internal strength. It's a pity that I don't understand the writing on the wall. Otherwise, if I practice according to the law, I can learn a set of sword skills. That's right, Grandpa Bai is still in the first room." I'm going to ask him to explain it to me." So when he returned to the first room, he saw Bai Neizai and Wen Renhou holding a wooden sword in each hand, they took apart a few moves, debated for a while, and pointed to the writing on the stone wall, each holding their own opinions and pointing out each other's fallacies. Shi Potian pulled Bai Zizai's sleeve and asked, "Grandpa, what do those words say?" Bai Zizai explained a few words.Wen Renhou interjected: "Wrong, wrong! Brother Bai, although your martial arts skills are high, I have been here for ten years. Could it be that these ten years of hard work have been wasted? There must be something you haven't grasped, right?" Bai Zizai said: "Martial arts is like the Zen of Buddhism, ten years of bitter ginseng may not be enough to realize it overnight. I think this sentence means this..." Wen Renhou shook his head repeatedly, and said, "That's absurd." Shi Potian listened to the two arguing endlessly, and thought: "The annotations on the wall are so difficult to understand. Just now the Dragon Island Master said that they invited countless experts and many very knowledgeable people to discuss it. After decades, they still can't figure it out. I understand. I don't know a single word, so why bother with them?" Walking around in the stone room, I can only hear people in a group in the east and a group in the west discussing differently and expressing their opinions. It is impossible to find someone to chat for a few words. It is very boring to be alone, and to look at the graphics on the stone wall. . He looked at the shapes of the twenty-four swords in the second room, and found that the directions of the long swords coincided with the meridians in the body. In the first picture, there was only a young scholar, and there were no other figures.After looking at it for a while, I felt that the right sleeve of the person in the picture is swaying gracefully and beautifully. I couldn't help but look at it for a while, and suddenly I felt a movement on the axillary point of Yuanyuan on the right flank, and a hot line along the Gallbladder Meridian of Foot Shaoyang, toward the "sun and moon" ", "Jingmen" two acupoints go. He was overjoyed, and looked at the figure carefully, and saw that the lines of the folds of the clothes, the face, and the fan of the person in the picture all had the meaning of a connection, and now he followed the momentum all the way down, and sure enough, the inner breath in his body also followed the pattern. Line running.Thinking: "The brushwork of the picture is consistent with the meridians in the body. I think this is the most superficial truth, and everyone here knows it. It's just that I can't understand those advanced martial arts. There is nothing left and right, just like practicing kung fu according to the lines on the puppet. Let's practice some rough kung fu here for fun, and when Grandpa Bai understands the superior martial arts, we can go back together." I found the source of the brushwork in the picture, and practiced according to the situation.The strokes of this figure are very different from those of calligraphy and painting in the world. Picking is from bottom to top, and curving is from right to left, but they are all oblique rather than straight.In this figure, there are many straight strokes from bottom to top and from right to left, which are often diametrically opposed to the meaning of calligraphy and painting, and are extremely clumsy.He didn't think it was strange at all, and continued to practice.If it were a Mongolian boy who had learned to write for dozens of days, he would definitely not follow such a path of writing. The strokes in the picture are upside down and upside down, with a total of 81 strokes.After Shi Potian practiced more than 30 strokes, he felt hungry. Seeing the four corners of the stone room with noodles and tea, he went there to eat and drink for a while, went to the toilet outside to relieve himself, and returned to practice according to the strokes. ! The light in the stone room was brightly lit. When he was tired, he leaned against the wall to sleep, and when he was hungry, he reached out to take cakes and ate them. After an unknown amount of time, he had memorized the eighty-one strokes of internal energy in the first picture and went to find Bai Zizai. , is no longer in the room. Shi Potian was slightly panicked, and shouted: "Grandpa, Grandpa!" He rushed to the second room, and at a glance he saw Bai Zizai holding a wooden sword, fighting a sword fight with an old Taoist with a childlike face and white hair.The swordsmanship of both of them seems to be very blunt, but the chi chi sound made by the two swords is the internal force of each of them injected into the sword move.There was a loud 'hu', and the wooden sword in Bai Zizai's hand flew out, but the wooden sword in the old Taoist's hand was also broken in two.The two took two steps back at the same time. The old Taoist smiled slightly, and said: "Mr. Wade, you have divine power, and the old Taoist is willing to bow down. But what we are comparing is swordsmanship, not internal strength." Bai Zizai said: "Master Yucha, your swordsmanship is better than mine. I admire it. But this is the martial art passed down from generation to generation by your Wudang school, but it is not the original intention of the swordsmanship on the stone wall." Taoist Yucha suppressed his smile, nodded, and said, "How do you say it?" Bai Zizai said : "The word 'Ming' in the phrase 'Wugou Shuangxueming' makes a lot of sense..." Shi Potian walked up to Bai Zizai, and said, "Grandpa, let's go back, okay?" Bai Zizai wondered, "What did you say?" You can leave. There are many boats by the beach, we can leave." Bai Zizai said angrily, "Nonsense! Why are you so anxious?" Seeing his anger, Shi Potian was a little frightened, and said, "Mother-in-law is waiting for you over there. She said she would wait for you for three months, and she would only wait until the eighth day of March. If you don't come back on the eighth day of March, she will throw herself into the sea." " Bai Zizai was startled, and said, "The eighth day of March? We arrived on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and it's only been two or three days. It's a long time. What are you afraid of? Let's go back slowly." Shi Potian was thinking about Axiu, and recalled that day when she stood on the beach to say goodbye, her expression was sad and caring, she truly regarded each other as "darlings", and she wished to fly back with her wings, but seeing Bai Zizao immersed in this wholeheartedly. Shibi martial arts, he really has no intention of leaving him, he can't leave him alone, dare not say any more, he walks to the third stone room.
As soon as he stepped into the stone room, he could feel the wind rushing, and the three well-dressed old men started running lightly, and they were running very fast and abnormally.The three of them ran so fast that they only filled the room with wind.The three of them ran chasing each other, but they kept talking in a very calm tone, which showed that their internal strength was very high, and they didn't feel short of breath because of galloping. I only heard the first old man say: "This poverty is the work of the great poet Li Bai. But Li Bai is a poet, but not a sword. Why does a short poem of 24 lines contain the principles of martial arts?" The second person said: "The one who created this set of martial arts is a great master of martial arts who is astonishing in history and unattainable. He just borrowed this poem from Li Bai to express his miraculous martial arts. Let's not be too stubborn and rigid. Yu Li Bai's poem "Xia Ke Xing"." The third person said: "Although Brother Ji's words are very reasonable, but if the sentence 'Silver saddle shines on a white horse' is incomprehensible without Li Nei's poetry." The first old man said: "Yes. Not only that, I think it has to be connected with the sentence in the fourth room, "Shu Da is like a shooting star" to be the correct answer. The explanation of poetry must not be taken out of context, and we should not take it out of context when we study martial arts." Shi Potian wondered inwardly, the three of them discussed martial arts, why didn't they sit down and talk slowly, but they kept chasing after each other?But it was clear in a moment.I only heard the second old man say: "Since you are conceited that you understand more than me in these two lines of poems, why do you use lightness kung fu, but it is only mediocre, and you still can't catch up with me?" The first old man laughed. He said: "Could it be that you can catch up to me again?" I saw the three of them running more and more anxiously, with the wind in their clothes, they formed a circle, but the distance between the three of them remained the same, it was obvious that the three of them had similar skills. No one can surpass it a little bit. Shi Potian looked at it for a while, then turned his head to look at the figure carved on the wall, and saw a horse running with its head held high, and the clouds under its feet were filled, as if it was flying in the sky.He followed the previous method, thinking about the horse's castration, but there was no movement in his inner breath, he thought: "The kung fu in this picture is different from the You Qi in the first and second chambers." Looking closely at the clouds under the horse's feet, he saw that the cloud and mist seemed to be constantly pushing forward, as if they were about to break through the wall and fly out.He walked around in a circle, glanced at the cloud on the stone wall, pushed his inner breath, and circled around again, but he hadn't learned lightness kung fu, he staggered, his posture was crooked and awkward, and running was far worse than running. The three old men were quick.Every time the three old men circled seven or eight times, he only circled one circle. Faintly heard the three old men sneering: "Where did the young man come to learn how to run like us? Haha, what is this like?" "The drunken step of the drunken eight immortals is also a superb martial arts with its own standards. This little brother's drunken nine immortals are too funny." Shi Potian blushed, stopped, but looked at the stone wall for a while, then ran again involuntarily.After turning around eight or nine times, he was engrossed in remembering the clouds on the wall, and he didn't hear a word of ridicule from the three old men. I don't know how many circles I ran, and I waited until I remembered the shape of a closed cloud in my heart, and stopped. The three old men had disappeared, but there were four other people holding weapons, imitating the flying horses on the wall. Stance, stabbing each other. These four people were fierce with their swords, and they were all chanting words, reciting the notes on the formulas on the stone wall.One person said: "The silver light is brilliant, and the saddle is stable." Another person said: "The 'shine' is high and condescending, and the 'white' is bright and deep." Humanity: "Li Shangyin wrote: 'Hands are the celestial horse, and the heart is the map of the country.' Yunfu: 'Taoism uses the hand as the celestial horse'. It turns out that the celestial horse is a hand, not really a horse." Shi Potian thought to himself: "These formulas are very profound, I can't understand them. They practice swords here, ranging from ten years to as many as thirty years. How can I wait so long? Anyway, I don't have time to wait, so just look around See, that's it." Now he walked to the fourth room, and on the wall was painted the map of the sentence "Shu Da Ru Meteor", he went to study and practice by himself. There are twenty-four lines in one poem, and there are twenty-four stone chamber illustrations.He walked around the rooms, did not understand the writing on the wall, and only practiced internal martial arts from the pictures.The fifth sentence "kills one person in ten steps", the tenth sentence "take off the sword and cross your knees", and the seventeenth sentence "save Zhao Huijin hammer", each sentence is a set of swordsmanship.The sixth sentence "doesn't leave you for a thousand miles", the seventh sentence "flick your clothes away when something happens", and the eighth sentence "hide your body and name deeply", each sentence is a set of light-hearted kung fu.The ninth sentence "passing Xinling to drink", the fourteenth sentence "the five mountains are the lightest", and the twenty-first sentence "the fragrance of the bones of the dead hero", each is a set of boxing and palming.The thirteenth sentence "Three Cups of Breathing Nuo", the sixteenth sentence "Yin Qi Suo Nisheng", and the twentieth sentence "Xuan He Daliang City" are the internal strength of breathing. Sometimes he learned very quickly, learning two or three sets in one day, and sometimes he didn't learn all sets in seventeen or eight days.Once he devoted himself to martial arts, he completely forgot the passage of time, and after an unknown number of days, he finally completed the atlases on the walls of the twenty-three stone chambers. Every time he finished learning a map, his mind calmed down, and he went to urge Bai Zizai to go back.But Bai Zizai became more and more familiar with the martial arts on the stone wall, and became more and more obsessed with it. When he saw Shi Potian came to urge him to ask him, he immediately cursed, saying that he disturbed his mind and delayed his study time, and later he punched him all the time. He is not allowed to speak close to him. Shi Potian was helpless, and went to discuss with Fan Yifei, Mrs. Gao San, etc. Unexpectedly, these people were also insane and completely immersed in Shibi martial arts. So what about annotations. Shi Potian was shocked: "The owner of Longmuer Island invited martial arts masters to study martial arts. He originally let them go home, but no one has left the island in the past 30 years, which shows that the martial arts on this stone wall are very fascinating. Fortunately, my martial arts skills are low and I am illiterate, so I will never miss them like them." Therefore, Fan Yifei and the others expressed their kindness and wanted to explain the words on the stone wall to him, but he only listened to a few sentences and left Open, never dare to look back, quickly forget what you heard, don't dare to think about it. Counting my fingers, it has been more than two and a half months since I arrived at Xiake Island, and I have to go back for a few more days. I thought that I have seen twenty-three of the twenty-four stone chambers, and I will go to the last one to see one more. In two days, if the graphics are too difficult, it will be too late to learn. If Grandpa refuses to leave, I have to go back first and tell Granny Shi and the others about the situation on the island, so that they don't worry about it.Fortunately, there is absolutely no danger in allowing grandpa to stay on the island to study martial arts.Now go to the twenty-fourth room.
Walking into the door, I saw Long Island Master and Mu Island Master sitting cross-legged on the brocade mat, facing the stone wall, contemplating deeply. Shi Potian was in awe of these two people, he didn't dare to approach them, he stood far away, raised his eyes to look at the stone wall, after seeing it, he was slightly disappointed, it turned out that there were figures on the walls of the twenty-three stone chambers, this last one The room is only engraved with words, and there are no pictures. He thought: "There are no pictures here, nothing to see here, I'll go tell grandpa, and I'll go back today." After thinking about it for a few words, he met Axiu, Shi Qing, Min Rou and others, and he was so happy that he couldn't tell. Immediately knelt down, bowed to the two island owners a few times, and said: "I am very grateful for the hospitality of the two island owners, and for letting me see the martial arts on the stone wall. I am a villain. Farewell." The island master Longmu Er ignored him, just stared at the stone wall in a daze, and seemed to be totally indifferent to his words.Shi Potian knew that when practicing advanced martial arts, everyone was so engrossed in it, so he didn't think it disobedient.Following the eyes of the two of them, they glanced at the stone wall again. Suddenly, they felt that the words on the wall seemed to be hovering and dancing one by one, and they couldn't help feeling dizzy, unable to stand still, and seemed about to fall down. He collected himself, and when he looked at the handwriting again, he felt dizzy again.He turned his eyes away and thought to himself: "Why are these characters so strange, just looking at them makes me dizzy?" Curious, he looked again and saw that each stroke of the handwriting seemed to have turned into tadpoles. It was wriggling on the wall, wanting to move, but if you just focused your eyes on a stroke, the tadpole didn't move. When he was young, he lived alone in a barren mountain. Every spring, he would catch many tadpoles in the mountain stream and keep them in the small pond formed by the accumulated water on the peak. He would watch them take off their legs, turn into frogs, jump out of the pond, and make a loud clucking sound. There are sounds all over the mountain, which relieves a lot of loneliness.At this time, it was like reuniting with my childhood playmates. I was delighted to watch the tadpoles carefully.It is very interesting to see countless tadpoles jumping up or down, with different postures. He looked at it for a long time, and suddenly felt his internal breath twitch on the Zhiyang point of the vest, and thought: "So these tadpoles seem to be swimming around randomly, but they are actually related to their internal breath." Another jump, but the internal breath from Zhiyang point to Xuanshu point cannot be linked together; turning to look at the third tadpole, there is no movement in the internal breath. Suddenly he heard a cold voice beside him saying: "Master Shi pays attention to the "Taixuan Jing". It turns out that he is a generous master who is proficient in tadpole writing." Looking at himself, he couldn't help but feel hot on his face, and hurriedly said: "The villain doesn't know a word, but it's very interesting to watch these little tadpoles, so I watched it for a while." Mu Daozhu nodded and said: "That's it. This "Taixuan Jing" is written in ancient tadpole script. I was surprised at first, but at such a young age, Master Shi has such a genius to know this kind of ancient script." Shi Po Tian said embarrassingly: "Then I won't watch it, I dare not disturb the two island owners." Island owner Mu said: "You don't have to go, even if you look here, it won't disturb us." He closed his eyes . Shi Potian wanted to go away, but he wanted to leave just like that. He was afraid that Mu Dao would be unhappy, so he would look at it for a while and then go out.When I turned my head to look at Biqi's tadpole again, the Zhongzhu acupoint on the lower abdomen suddenly jumped violently, and I couldn't help shaking my whole body, thinking: "These little tadpoles are really strange, they can jump so big and so special before they become frogs. " I couldn't help but have a childlike innocence, I looked at the tadpoles one by one, and it was very amusing to see the acupoints on my body jumping violently. There are tens of thousands of small tadpoles painted on the wall, and sometimes by coincidence, the internal breath of the two acupuncture points is connected together, and the whole body feels comfortable.He was so excited, he had long forgotten what Master Mu said, and looked for suitable tadpoles by himself, and connected the internal breaths in various acupoints together. But there are countless tadpoles on the wall, so how easy is it to connect hundreds of acupuncture points all over the body into one internal breath?There is no daylight in the stone room, only lights, so I don't know day and night, but I just go to eat noodles when I am hungry, after eating eight or nine meals, more and more acupoints are connected in series. But these little tadpoles seem to have moved to the meridians and acupoints in his body one by one, and they seem to have turned into little mussels, jumping around between his limbs and bones.He found it interesting and frightening at the same time, only when several acupoints were connected together, the turbulence and jumping of the inner breath calmed down a little bit, but one acupoint was flat and another acupoint moved, he seemed to be fascinated by a demon, just staring at the stone wall After reading the words on the wall, I leaned against the wall and fell asleep until I was very tired. After waking up, my eyes were attracted by the thousands of small tadpoles on the wall.So obsessively, he eats when he is hungry, sleeps when he is tired, and spends the rest of his time just looking at the little tadpole. Sometimes it is very strange to see the eyes of Longmuer Island Master looking at him, and he feels ashamed in his heart. It's over, and then no longer pay attention. I don't know which day it was, but all of a sudden, I suddenly felt that my inner breath was surging, breaking through seven or eight stagnant places in an instant, and flowing rapidly like a big river, from the dantian to the top of the head, from the top of the head to the dantian , faster and faster.He was panicked and lost his mind for a while, he didn't know what to do, he just felt that his limbs and bones were full of strength that could not be vented, so he used the palm technique of "Five Sacred Mountains to Lighten" without any hesitation. After using the palm technique, the energy becomes stronger, the empty sword is held in the right hand, and the sword technique of "killing one person in ten steps" is performed, although there is no sword in the hand, the sword moves come out continuously. The sword technique of "killing one person in ten steps" has not yet been used, the skin of the whole body seems to be swollen and cracked, and the inner breath is not mountainous. The meridian movement map of "Zhao Keman Huying" is voluntarily turning, and at the same time dancing with hands and feet, it seems like great joy, It also seems to be in great distress. After "Zhao Keman Hu Ying" is finished, "Wu hook is frosty and snowy" is next. The twenty-three sentences "Who can write to Your Excellency" were executed in one go, at that time the sword technique, palm technique, internal energy and lightness energy were all integrated into one, and it was already difficult to tell whether it was the palm or the sword. After the performance of "Who Can Write Your Excellency", I felt that the breath was reversed, so I went up from the 22nd sentence "I am not ashamed to be the best in the world", and practiced directly to the first sentence "Zhao Keman Huying".He couldn't help screaming loudly, in an instant, the Yan Yan Gong taught by Xie Yanke, the Nei Gong learned from the puppet body, and the Snow Mountain Swordsmanship that Ding Dang taught from the disciples of the Snow Mountain School when they practiced swords. The grasping technique, the Shangqing Guanjian technique taught by Shi Qing and his wife, the various boxing techniques and palm techniques taught by Ding Busi, and the Golden Crow Saber technique taught by Granny Shi, all flooded into my heart.He waved his hands casually, not according to the order, but he felt that no matter whether it was "burning the Zhu Hai" or "taking off the sword and crossing the knees", he could do whatever he wanted, and he didn't need to think about his inner breath, nor did he need to memorize it. The tricks, the thousands of moves on the stone wall, are naturally transmitted from the heart to the siblings. The more he acted, the more delighted he was, he couldn't help laughing, and shouted: "Wonderful!" Suddenly the two people cheered in unison: "Sure enough!" Shi Potian was startled, stopped his moves, and saw Island Master Long and Island Master Mu standing in the corner of the room, looking at him with surprise on their faces.Shi Potian hurriedly said: "The villain is messing around regardless of the seriousness, please forgive me." He thought: "This is terrible. I am shouting and shouting here, but I disturbed the two island owners' hard work." It's panic. I saw that the two island owners were sweating profusely, their clothes were completely wet, and the corner of the room where they were standing was also full of water stains. Master Long Dao said: "The master of the Stone Gang is a genius, gratifying, congratulations, accept my worship." After saying that, he bowed down.Master Mu followed suit.Shi Potian was shocked, he hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed again and again, only made a loud noise, and said: "You two are so... this... you are so polite, this... this will kill a villain." Lord Longdao said: "Master Shi... please... please get up..." Shi Potian stood up, only to see Master Long Island who was about to stand up straight, suddenly swayed twice, and sat down on the ground.Master Mu Island held the ground with both hands, but he couldn't stand up either.Shi Potian was startled and said: "What's the matter with you two?" He hurried over to help Island Master Long to sit up, and then Island Master Mu up.Dragon Island Master shook his head, smiled, and closed his eyes for luck.Master Mu Island folded his palms together and did the work by himself. Shi Potian didn't dare to disturb him, he looked at Island Master Long and then at Island Master Mu, his heart was filled with surprise.After a long time, Island Master Mu took a long breath, jumped up, and hugged Island Master Long.The two hugged each other, laughing loudly, obviously full of joy.Shi Potian didn't know why the two of them were so happy, he could only giggle along with him, but he guessed it would definitely not be a bad thing, and he felt relieved. Master Long Island supported the stone wall, slowly stood up straight, and said: "Master Shi, the big doubt that my brother has been bored in my heart for decades, I am really grateful to you for solving it today." Shi Potian said: "I How...how did you solve it?" Island Master Long said with a smile: "Why is the leader of the Stone Gang so humble? You have understood the stone wall map of this song, not only the first person in the martial arts world, but also the one who carved the map on the stone wall back then. Apart from that senior, I am afraid that throughout the ages, there are very few people who can match you." Shi Potian was terrified, and said repeatedly: "The villain dare not, the villain dare not." Lord Long Dao said: "I and brother Mu know less than 10% of the ancient script on tadpoles on the stone wall. I wonder if the master of the stone gang is willing to give you some advice?" Shi Potian looked at Island Master Long and then Island Master Mu, seeing that their faces were sincere, but they were worried about gains and losses, as if he was afraid that he would not reveal the secret, he hurriedly said: "I'll tell you two to find out." Yes. When I look at this tadpole, there is a jump in Zhongzhu acupoint; when I look at this tadpole again, there is a big jump in Taihe acupoint..." He pointed to each tadpole and explained to them.He talked for a while, seeing that Longmu and Mu were confused, as if they didn't understand at all, he asked, "Did I say something wrong?" Master Long Dao said: "It turns out...it turns out... Leader Stone is looking at each...the tadpoles one by one, not each word, so how can Leader Stone understand the entire "Taixuan Sutra"?" Shi Potian blushed, and said: "I have never read a book since I was a child, I really don't know a word, I feel ashamed." The island masters of Longmu Er jumped up together and asked in unison: "Are you illiterate?" Shi Potian shook his head and said, "I don't know how to read. I... When I go back, I must ask Axiu to teach me how to read. Otherwise, everyone can read but I don't. It's embarrassing to be laughed at." Seeing the simplicity and sincerity on his face, Master Longmu Erdao couldn't help but believe that there was absolutely no hint of cunning.Master Long Island only felt a mess in his mind, he supported the stone wall, and asked: "Since you can't read or write, then from the first room to the twenty-third room, who are the many annotations on the wall?" Explain it to you?" Shi Potian said: "No one explained it to me. Grandpa Bai explained a few words, and Uncle Fan from Kanto explained a few words. I didn't understand, so I didn't listen. I... I just looked at the graph, thinking wildly, and suddenly Suddenly, the cloud heads or small swords on the picture are connected with the heat in the body." Master Mu Dao said: "You are illiterate, but you can understand the atlas, how...how is this possible?" Master Long Dao said, "Is there really a divine will in the dark? Or is this Stone Gang Master really a genius?" Island Master Mu suddenly stamped his feet, and shouted: "I understand, I understand. Brother, that's how it is!" Island Master Long was stunned, and immediately understood.The two of them have lived together for decades, their cultivation bases are similar, and their skills are also similar, but Island Master Mu is taciturn and has less foreign affairs than Island Master Long, so when he realized the key point, he was a moment earlier than him .The two clasped hands, the expressions on their faces were both very sad and bitter, and even more joyful. Master Long Island turned to Shi Potian and said: "Master Shi, thanks to your illiteracy, you were able to solve this big mystery, so that my brother can die in peace and not die with hatred." Shi Potian scratched his head and asked, "What... what died in peace?" Island Master Long sighed softly, and said: "It turns out that there are so many annotations, each of which is deliberately misleading people. But who is willing to study the annotations after studying the atlas?" Shi Po Tianqi said: "Island Master, you said those many words are useless?" Long Island Master said: "Not only are they useless, but they are also very harmful. If there were no such explanations, how could the countless painstaking efforts of the two of us go to waste? ? After decades of hard thinking, there should be some benefits, right?" Master Mu Dao sighed: "It turns out that this "Tai Xuan Jing" is not a real tadpole text, but... it is just the directions of some meridians and acupoints. Alas, forty years of time, forty years of time !" Long Island Master said: "The White Head Taixuan Sutra! Brother, your hair is really snowy!" Mu Island Master glanced at Long Island Master's head and said "Hey".Although he didn't speak, all three of them understood in their hearts, what he meant was: "Why isn't your hair white?" Island Master Longmu Er sighed long and suddenly, he looked very old.Not to mention the majesty of the Laba Banquet that day. Shi Potian was still puzzled, and asked again: "He deliberately wrote so many characters on the stone wall to make people go astray, why is that?" Master Long Island shook his head and said: "It's very difficult to say what the intention is. This martial arts senior may not want future generations to get it too easily, or these comments were added by someone else later. This past matter, No one knows." Mu Daozhu said: "Perhaps this martial arts senior doesn't like scholars, so he deliberately set up traps to benefit honest and honest people like Shi Gang who can't read." Long Daozhu sighed : "This senior has a deep heart, who can figure it out?" Shi Potian saw that the two of them looked tired and depressed, he felt very sorry, and said: "Two island masters, if the kung fu I have learned is really useful, I should tell you all about it. Let's go to the second place right now. In a stone chamber, let me tell you one by one, I...I...I will never dare to hide anything." Master Long Island shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "The kindness of the little brother, we both appreciate it. The kindness of the little brother, he should benefit from it. In the future, he will lead the martial arts group and benefit the common people. It is not unreasonable. The two of us A lot of hard work is not in vain." Mu Daozhu said: "Exactly, now that the mystery of the atlas has been solved, the two of us have fulfilled our wish. It doesn't matter whether the little brother did it or the two of us did it. The same one." Shi Potian begged: "Then let me tell you two about these little tadpoles in detail, okay?" Island Master Long smiled sadly, and said: "Since the magical skills have to be passed on to others, the atlas on the wall should also be completed and retired. Little brother, take a look again." Shi Potian turned around and looked at the stone wall, he couldn't help but turn pale with astonishment.I saw flakes of stone chips falling slowly from the stone wall, and the tadpole characters all over the wall were scattered and broken, leaving only 70% to 80% of them.Shocked, he said, "How...how did this happen?" Island Master Long said: "Little brother just now..." Island Master Mu said: "Let's talk about this matter slowly, let's go to a gathering and announce this matter?" Island Master Long immediately understood and said: "Very good, very good .Master Shi, please." Shi Potian didn't dare to go first, he followed Longmuer Island Master and came out of the stone room.Lord Long Island sent a message to invite all the guests, summoned his disciples, and went to the hall to gather together. It turned out that after Shi Potian realized the magical skills on the stone wall, he couldn't help auditioning.Island Master Longmu Er was very surprised when he saw it, and Island Master Long stepped forward to greet him immediately.At that time, Shi Potian seemed to be possessed by a demon, and when he felt someone was attacking, he naturally responded with his palm. After a few moves, Island Master Long felt that it was difficult to resist, and Island Master Mu immediately stepped forward to attack.The martial arts of the two of them, there is no third person to be found in this world, but the two joined forces, they still can't match Shi Potian's newly enlightened miraculous martial arts.Originally, if the two of them stopped the move immediately, Shi Potian would automatically stop, but both of them want to try how powerful the martial arts on the wall are, so they are flying with all four palms, hitting harder and harder.The stronger the palms of the two of them were, the stronger Shi Potian's counterattack was. The palms of the three hit the stone wall, shaking the floating surface of the stone wall.The palm strength of the island master Longmu Er alone can destroy the stone wall, not to mention Shi Potian's internal strength is already very strong, coupled with the newly acquired skill, the palm strength of the three of them is the pinnacle of martial arts. Although the stone wall was destroyed, it did not shatter immediately, but slowly disintegrated and fell. Island Master Mu knew that Shi Potian was in a dream when he tried his skills, and he didn't know anything about the outside world, so he stopped Island Master Long from going on, lest Shi Potian feel sad for accidentally damaging the stone wall; It was because the two of them raised their hands to invite palms, the fault was their own and not the other's.
The three came to sit down in the hall, and all the guests and disciples arrived one after another.Master Long Island sent an order to turn off the lights in the various stone chambers, so that no one would be too greedy to study kung fu and would not come to the party. All the guests took their seats.The martial arts chiefs who came to Xia Ke Island in the past 30 years, except for those who died due to death, have all gathered in the hall.Over the past thirty years, these people have come and gone day and night in the twenty-four stone rooms, but they have never gathered together like this. Master Longdao ordered the eldest disciple to check the number of people, and knowing that all the guests had arrived, there were no omissions, so he whispered a few words to the disciple.The disciple looked stunned, Dayou was surprised.Master Mujima also whispered some instructions to the senior disciples of his sect.The two senior disciples heard what their master said, and asked for instructions for a while, and then they were ordered to lead more than ten junior disciples out of the hall to handle errands. Lord Long Island walked to Shi Potian's side, and said in a low voice: "Little brother, you must not tell others what happened in the stone room just now. Even your closest person, you must not let him know that you have explained the matter to others. The secrets of martial arts on the stone wall, otherwise you will have endless disasters and troubles in your life." Shi Potian replied: "Yes, I will follow the instructions of the island master." Long Island master said again: "As the saying goes: slow hiding and robbery. You possess a peerless miraculous skill, if anyone finds out, there will inevitably be people in the martial arts world who are envious of envy, jealousy and hatred, or ask you for advice, or force you to reveal the secret, if the request is not fulfilled, they will do everything possible to harm you .Although your martial arts are high, but you are honest and honest, you are really hard to guard against. Therefore, you must not leak anything about this matter." Shi Potian replied: "Yes, thank you, the island master, for pointing it out. This junior is very grateful." Island Master Long held his hand and said in a low voice: "It's a pity Brother Mu and I can't see you show off your talents and show off your power." Island Master Mu seemed to know what the two of them were talking about, and turned to look at Shi Potian, The expression is also full of concern and regret.Shi Potian thought to himself: "These two island owners have treated me so well. After I go back to see Axiu, I will definitely come to the island with her again to visit his two elders." The Dragon Island Master finished his instructions to him, and then returned to his seat, and said to the heroes: "My friends, it is finally a fate for us to meet on this island. Today, everyone's fate is over, it will take broke up." When the heroes heard this, they were horrified and asked each other: "Why?" "What happened on the island?" "What do the two island owners have to say?" Amidst the noise of the crowd asking each other, suddenly there were rumbling, rumbling, bursts of explosions like thunder from behind.The heroes immediately shut up, not knowing what strange changes had taken place on the island. Master Long Dao said: "Everyone, we gather here, only hope to solve the mystery of this martial art illustration, unfortunately, the time is not with me, this island of knights will sink in a blink of an eye." The heroes were shocked and asked: "Why?" "Is it an earthquake?" "A volcanic eruption?" "How did the island owner know?" 龙岛主道：“适才我和木兄弟发现本岛中心即将有火山喷发，这一发作，全岛立时化为火海。此刻雷声隐隐，大害将作，各位急速离去吧。” 群雄将信将疑，都是拿不定主意。大多数人贪恋石壁上的武功，宁可冒丧生之险，也不肯就此离去。龙岛主道：“各位如果不信，不妨去石室一观，各室俱已震坍，石壁已毁，便是地震不起，火山不喷，留在此间也无事可为了。” 群雄听得石壁已毁，无不大惊，纷纷抢出大厅，向厅后石室中奔去。 石破天也随着众人同去，只见各间石室果然俱已震得倒塌，壁上图谱尽皆损毁。石破天知是龙木二岛主命弟子故意毁去，心中好生过意不去，寻思：“都是我不好，闯出这等的大祸来。” 早有人瞧出情形不对，石室之毁显是出于人为，并非地震使然，振臂高呼，又群相奔回大厅，要向龙木二岛主质问。刚到厅口，便听得哀声大作，群雄惊异更甚，只见龙木二岛主闭目而坐，群弟子围绕在二人身周，俯伏在地，放声痛哭。 石破天吓得一颗心似欲从腔中跳了出来，排众而前，叫道：“龙岛主、木岛主，你……你们怎么了？”只见二人容色僵滞，原来已然逝世。石破天回头向张三、李四问道：“两位岛主本来好端端的，怎么……怎么便死了？”张三呜咽道：“两位师父逝世之时，说道他二人大愿得偿，虽离人世，心中……却感满足，十分平安喜乐。” 石破天心中难过，不禁哭出声来。他不知龙木二岛主突然去世，一来年寿本高，得知图谱的秘奥之后，于世上更无萦怀之事；二来更因石室中一番试掌，石破天内力源源不绝，龙木二岛主竭力抵御，终于到了油尽灯枯之境。他若知二位岛主之死与自己实有莫大干系，更要深自咎责、伤心无已了。 那身穿黄衫的大弟子拭了眼泪，朗声说道：“众位嘉宾，我等恩师去世之前，遗命清各位急速离岛。各位以前所得的'赏善罚恶'铜牌，日后或仍有用，请勿随意丢弃。他日各位若有为难之事，持牌到南海之滨的小渔村中相洽，我等兄弟或可相助一臂之力。” 群雄失望之际，都不禁又是一喜，均想：“侠客岛群弟子武功何等树害，有他们出手相助，纵有天大的祸患，也担当得起。” 那身穿青衫的大弟子说道：“海边船只已备，各位便请动程。”当下群雄纷纷向龙木二岛主的遗体下拜作别。 张三、李四拉着石破天的手。张三说道：“兄弟，你这就去吧，日后我们当来探你。”李四道：“三弟，我们恩师吩咐，以后要当你是侠客岛的自己人一般相待。” 石破天和二人别过，随着白自在、范一飞、高三娘子、天虚道人等一干人来到海边，上了海船。此番回去，所乘的均是大海船，只三四艘船，便将群雄都载走了，拔锚解缆，扬帆离岛。
